The Season Still Lingering on the Jersey Shorc—President Grant as a fisher- man, Lona Branca, June 17, 1873. The Branch still lingers in a Sahara heat, wait- ing for the promised guests. Express wagons, loaded to the brim with furniture, are pass- ing hourly, and have been for the last four days, to fill the cottages, and omnibus loads arrive at each hotel by every train and depart again. Every hotel is open and ready, except the West End; but as yet the wary seaside seeker hesitates and fails. The engagements are plenty, and very few hotels have less than a houseful on the en- gagement book; but these pay no bills, and only transient custom is to be depended on now to settle the butchers’ bills. Of these the Howland has the most, the Ocean Hotel is not far behind and the Clarendon nets a very fair profit. But {t is not of these that Long Branch landlords make their money, Permanent families and regular guests are the wherewithal by which the hotel men shall be saved. The preliminaries of the family arrivals are very promising. Every boat from New York brings a huge cargo of trunks, and an extra trip has already been placed upon the line, the mouth Rock running at @ quarter to seven A. M. The West End, redeemed from the household desolation of dismantled furniture and aired bedding, is almost prepared for her Summer glory, ‘and will burst into full bloom on Thurs- A few notables are already booked for a Summer stay there, and some of the theatrical notabitities will take possession to-morrow, with- out waiting for the formal opening.

The day is a rather promising one for ocean fish- ing, but the swell is 30 heavy that the old fash- toned Jersey fishermen came in as early as nine o’clock, with nothing for their pains out tne tradi- tional “‘fishersman’s luck.” The President held on until noon, despite the wary fish, a sea s:ckenin; swell, a hungry stomach ‘and weil dampene: clothes, but what he has to show for his venture is not forthe public to know.

OBITUARY. Asaac Ferris, D.D., LL.D. Rev. Isaac Ferris, D.D., LL.D., ex-Chancellor of the University of New York city, died suddenly at his residence, Roselle, New Jersey, at the hour of ten o'clock at night, on Monday, the 16th instant, He was in the seventy-fifth year of his age when he ‘was called away irom this life. His demise will be deeply and widely regretted. By its occurrence New York loses one of its oldest and most respected citizens and the cause of universal education a most earnest and able advocate. Isaac Ferris was born in the city of New York in the month of October, in the year 1798, His early education was in charge of Bund Nelson, a famous Classical teacher of the time, and he was graduated at Columbia College in the year 1816. He went im- Mediately to Albany, and accepted a position of teacher in the academy there, two months before he was eighteen years old. During two and a half years he studied theology with Dr. John Mason, and Concluded his preparation for the ministry in the theological seminary at New Brunswick, N. J., in 1820, ra part of a year ne acted as home mis- sionary in the Mohawk Valley, then a sparsely settled region, He was pastor of the Reformed Dutch chufch of New Brunswick, N. J., from 1821-24; of the Middie Dutch Church, Albany, trom 1 .. and of the Market street Reformed Dutch charch in this city from 1836-53. In 1852 he was elected Chancellor of the University, a position whici he held until1870, when his age warned him that he could no longer undertake such active duties. fis pastorates were very successful. While settled in Albany he was trustee and Presi- dent of the Albany Academy and the Albany Fe- male Academy, and while pastor of the Market street churcii originated and established Rutgers Femaie institute of this city, which was a great success, having over five hundred pupils. The ex-Chancellor hag been President of the New rk Sabbath School Union for about thirty-M¥e vears; has been a member and chair- man of the Distributing Committee of the Awer|- can Bible Society for about twenty-eight years; has been @ member, President, secretary and ex- ecutive officer of the Board of Foreign Missions of the Reformed Church for abou: forty years, and avas @ corporate member of the American Board of Commissioners of Foreign Missions ae the lat- ter part of the time in which the Refor Charch co-operated with that Board as the representative of the denomination. During the past five or six years he has suffered enlargement of a vaive of the heart, and about four weeks since was con- fined to his room irom the effects of the disease.

WasuINGTON, June 17, 1873, The Result of the Stantey- Livingstone Expedition Gratifying to the State De- partment. The Stave Department is gratified at the an- nounoement of an impending treaty between the Imaum of Muscat and the British government tor the suppression of the legal trafic in domestic slaves, which has given cloak toan extensive trade in the illicit export of slaves to Asia, besides Mo- zambique and Madagascar. It will be remembered that though this government declined, through Secretary Fish, the proposition of the British gov- ernment to jointly subsidize regular lines of steam packets as @ means o! developing European civil- ization through commerce, it did assent to the ac- companying proposition for a joimt application of diplomatic pressure upon the Imaum to induce him to resign his limited right of sea carriage of slaves irom one port of his dominion to another. Comimander Wilson was sent with the Yantic to Zanzibar to intimate to the Sultan the pleasure it would afford the President of the United States if he wouid consent to abrogate the obvoxious part ol the existing treaty with Great Britain, Even this Was regarded as a departure from the traditional Policy of the United states, justifiable on the score of humanity, very gratifying to Great Britain as appears by the correspondence, and now believed not to have been whoily ineffectual with the Sultan: This diplomatic success, achieved through Com- mander Wilson’s first representations, is justly con- Bidered at the State Department as an indirect result, at least, of the Herald Stantey expedition, ©The President’s Movement, The President will return to Washington in time this week to hold a Cabinet meeting on Friday. The Kickapoo Captives, Satanta and Big Tree. It ts uncertain whether the War Department will release the Kickapoo women and children as asked through the Peace Commissioners. General Sher- man is still favorable to sending tnem toa good fertile reservation in the Indian Territory. Still, as Coionel Mackenzie appears to have weakened under solicitation of the Special Com- missioners sent to recover the Kickapoo bands from Mexico, the War Department will not stand out against any earnest pressure from Secretary Delano for the release of the hostages, though it would prefer to hold them as securities for peace and good behavior on the part of their tribes. On the same principle the military authorities passively assent to the pardon and release of the Kiowa chiefs, Santanta and Big Tree, not caring to assume the discourtesy and responsibilty of resisting the allegation of the Indian Bureau that the faith of the government is Pledged to effect the liberty of those distinguished ravagers of Northern Texas, Another Goody-Goody Letter on Behalf of the Kiowa Murderers—A School- master Very Much Abroad. A letter from Thomas C. Batty, a teacher in the Kiowa camp, dated Kiowa Agency, Fort Sill, May’ 31, and addressed to Agent Haworth, has been forwarded to the Secretary of the Interior. Mr. Batty gives accounts of a very frienaly state of feel- ing of the Kiowas toward the agency and the gen- eral government, also 01 their great anxiety for the restoration to them of their cniels, Santanta and Big Tree, and says he believes, from his acquaintance with the tribe, that the latter act on the part of the government would go tar toward their settling down and ultimate civ- ilization, Mr. Batty also says, at the time of his going among them, in Deceinber last, that the por- tion of the tribe with which he was located were making great exertions to collect and re- turn the mules stolen from the govern- ment, and many were , returned, probably to the extent of their ability. The subject of their frequent raids into Texas was freely talked over in their camps, and discouraged by their chiefs and principal men. Later in the Winter, when a prop- osition was made to them by a party of Cheyennes, who came to them in the name of the tribe, professing to be sent to the chiefs, to join them in the Spring in a descent upon the agencies, notwithstanding their rations were insufficient to prevent the gnawings of hunger, they having fre- quently to kill their horses and mules for sub- sistence, and the representations by the Cheyennes of plenty in their camps, with their solicita- tions to immediately join them in tae buffalo country, they utterly refused to listen to them, and gave immediate information to their agent of the design of the Cheyennes, Afterwards, after the murder of the four men belonging to the surveying party, the Cheyennes moved to the south side of the Wichita River and encamped near some of the Kiowas, who were away from the main body of the Kiowas, remaining there some time until the main body of the Kiowas removed to aplace near by, when three of the Cheyenne chieis visited theircamp and had a council with Kiowa chiefs, in which the Kiowas informed them that they understood the road that Washington made for them; they believed it to be a good road and should travel in it, The Kiowas resisted all overtures to make war upon the agencies, and advised the Cheyennes not to endeavor to get their Kiowa young men into trouble by inducing them to go on the war path. On the night of May 15 the war chiefs held a council im consquence of an invi- tation to join a marching party into Texas, and the next morning, in the presence of Mr. Batty, informed some of their chiefs that they had determined to punish any Kiowa soldier who should go or attempt to go raiding into Texas, by killing his ponies and burning his lodge. On the 18th the Kiowas intercepted a band (not Kiowas) who had started on @ raid, surrounded them and told them they would give them four talks, amd then, if they stili persisted in going on the raid, they should kill their horses, tear their blankets, and they should go naked and on foot, The writer concludes:—‘ They often tell me that if the government does net return Santanta and Big Tree about the time speci- fled by Beebe in his council two months since, they can put no jurther confidence im the white man's word, and that they are waiting to see the fulfl- nent of that agreement beiore settling down; that il they are delivered up they will settle down, raise corn, send their children to school, and do Just as their Great Father at Washington wants them to do, eeorines they can have a schoolhouse away irom the military post. ‘exan Precaution Against Indian Inva- sion.

WOMAN'S RIGHTS. ‘Trial of Susan B, Anthony at Canan- daigua, N. Y.—Does the Fact of a Voter _Being 2 Woman Constitute a Crime t= Definition of the Word “ Knowing.” Cananparova, N. Y., June 17, 1873. The case of the United States against Susan B. Anthony, who was indicted for voting in violation Gt law, at the city of Rochester, at the last Novem- ber general election, was catted in the Circuit Court of the United States, now in segsion in this village, at three o'clock P.M. to-day. The distinguished detendant personally appeared in Court accom- panied by Mrs. Matilda J. Gage and other ladies, and was represented by her counsel, Mr. Henry R, Seidern and Mr. John Van Voorhis, of Rochester. Mr. Richard Crowly, District At- torney, represented the United States. A jury was empanelled without diMculty, the government ex- ercising the right of challenging but once, and tne defendant three times, The District Attorney made a brief statement of the facts on which he relied for a conviction, and which were charged in the indictment:—That Miss Anthony voted at the last election for the Congressional candidate for the Twenty-filth dis- trict and for the Cougressman at Large.”’ It was conceded that the defendant was, on the Sth of No- vember, 1872, & Woman. THE TESTIMONY. Beverly W. James was sworn by the government as a witness, and testified as follows:— He knew the defendant; that he was an inspector of election in the bighth ward, First district, of the city of Rochester; that Miss Anthohy voted. the "Congressional, State and Assemb!. hat he put longed ; that Miss Anthon ‘was one of the Beard of 4 wi not ¢ Registry; that the rd and ‘claimed the right to be stered ; that onjection was made as to her right to vote; that the Board decided that she was enttied, and registered her name; that one of the tederal Supervisors of Election was present and advised the In- spectors that the defendant was entitled to be registered, and they did it; that Miss Anthony cluimed the right to vote under the United States constitution, and not ander the State law ; she claumed the right under the fourteenth amendment ; the name of the devendant appeared on the poll list as number twenty-two, and it also cepesre that jl the Electoral, State, Cougress and Assembly cl IN OPENING THE DEFENCE, Judge Selden claimed that the case was one of great magnitude and interest, not only to the de- fendant but to the whole people. When the de- fendant claimed her right to be registered to vote she Was as mnuch entitled to both of those rights as any man, Qud when she voted, if she fully believed she had aright to vote, she committed no crime. The question for the jury was whether she did vote in good faith, beiieving that she had a right to vote. Judge Selden then stated that for the second time in his professional life he was compelled to offer himscli as a witness. in behalt of his chent. Being sworn he testified as tollows :— Before the defendant voted she called on him for ad. vice as to her right to vote; that he took time to exam- me the question, und did so’ very carefully; and that he then vised her that she was as muc' or any other mat that he believed then legal right to vice she voted. The defendant then OFFERED HERSELF AS A WITNESS on her own behalf on the subject of intent and good faith. The District Attorney objected to her compe- tency to testify in her own behalf, and the objec- tion Was sustained. The deience then rested, wo E. Pound was then sworn by the proseco- jon :— On the examination betore Commissioner Storrs the defendant stated that she should have offered to vote even if she had not had Judge Selden’s advice ; that she had not a particle of doubt of her right to vote. There was no further testimony given, snd Judge Selden pone to addresa the Court and jury in exhaustive argument, occupying nearly three hours in its delivery, unciated three propositions; first that the defend- s legally entitled to vote at the election in ques- tion ; second, if she was not so encitled, but believed that she was so and voted in good faith in’ that belief, such Voting does not constitute a crininal offence under the statute, third, that she did yw a 4 n belief ‘and in good — taith. first two questions were for the last for the aide urfiess the Court should cons! clear that the défendant, acted in yood talth as to leave Ro question tor the consideration of the jury. Mr. Seiden insisted that the only alleg ground of the iliegality of the detendant’s vote 1s tha SHE IS 4 WOMAN; that if the same act had been dove by her brother under the same circumstances it would nave been not only in- nocent but Iaudable; but being done by his client, because she is a woman, it is said @ crime: The crime, therefore, consisted not in tne act done, but in'the fact that the person doing it was a wo- man and not @ man. He believed that it was the first time in the history of the world in which a woman had Deen arraigned In # criminal Court merely on account of her sex. The right to take part in the establishment of government is founded in @ natural and able right of every citizen. Women have the same interest in the maintenance ot good government as men. No greater ubsurcity, to use no harsher term, could be presented to the human mind than that of re- warding men and ounishing women for the same act, Without giving woman any voice in the question which shall be rewarded and which punished, He reterred e tact that all political rights and many p i denied to women, and that it is this is no disadvantaye to them, because they are, represented by men, and thelr ri Protected by them. He spoke of inétances occurring in is own protessional lite, of the inanner in which mar- ried women are sometimes protected by this kind of rep- resentatives, when by the inequality of the law gross in- justice had been done to women. He reterred to the ‘changes that had beon made in the law by the acts of 188 and 18) im reterence to the rights of married Wo- men, and the great change the law had undergone in the last twenty-five years in that respect, and said that these were great ameliorations of the law, but said “How have they been produced? Mainly as the re- sult of the exertions of afew herotc women, one of the foremost of whom is she who stands betore you criminal to-day. For a thousand years the absurdities and conditions to which he alluded have been imbedded in the common law and the statute book, and men have touched them not, and would not have done so until the day of tinat doom had they not been goaded to it by the persistent etiorts of the noble women to whom he alluded.” He insistea that the time eter he Fit so had come when the civil and political rights of women should be placed upon a perfect equalit; men. To make outthe offence charged against the deiendant, the prosecution should show affirmatively, not that the de- jendant voted conscientiously without having a right to vote, but that she so voted knowing that 8N¥ MAD NO MIGHT 70 OTR, ‘The word “knowing” related not to the fact of voting, but to the fact of the want of the right to vote.

SMASH-UP OF A BANKING HOUSE IN PITTS- BURG. PritsuvRd, Pa., June 17, 1873. This morning, at about half-past 11 o'clock, the bankers and brokers of Fourth Avenue were somewhat startled and astonished at observing that the doors of one of the largest private banking houses in the city, that of 8. McLean & Co., were closed and that the firm had suspended payment. To make matters all more serious, the Exchange National Bank of this city brought a suit against Samuel McLean, charging him with procuring trom thelr institution $8,400 on representation to the effect that he had $12,000 on de- posit in the Dry Goods Bank of New York city. This representation was found upon inquiry to be false, the Cashier of the Dry Goods Bank stating that Mr. McLean had not then nor never al account with them. Yester- day, it is said, several of Mr. McLean's checks went ‘to protest, thus giving to financial men a premoni- tion, though but a short one, of the impending crash. ‘The news of suspension gained currency with astonishing rapidity, and astonishment in- creased when it was rumored that tuere had been certain irregularities and that a warrant had been issued ‘or the arrest oi McLean. What the amount of Habitities will be I am unable to learn at the present moment, but it is stated that Mr. McLean claims that his assets are double the amount ot his liabilities. McLean is successor of his tather, who for many years tollowed the same business on Fourth avenue, near the present oilice of McLean & Co. He died ‘about three years ago, leaving the property to hia son, who is now said to have leit the city on account of the multiplicity of his troubies, The culmination of disaster this morning, although not unexpected among a iew partics who had pecuuar opportunities of knowing the ins and outs of McLean’s financial lie, created quite a Hutter among the majority of bankers and brokers, it being by no means an event that was generaily looked for. It is possible that future de- velopments may remove in some degree the present serious look o1 this affair, and this, in fact, is highiy provable trom what can be learned to-night. It would appear that the difficulties of the firm are Dut temporary, and that everything will be ship- shape in a Jew days and business again resumed, DISASTROUS FIRE AT WESTBORO, MASS. Worcester, Mass., June 17, 1873. Athalf past twelve o'clock last night a fire broke out at Westboro, in the Eagle Block, opposite the Boston and Albany Railroad depot, first ap- pearing in the upper stories, occupied as tene- ments, The flames spread rapidly, and soon com- municated to the adjoining buildings. Westboro has but one steam fire engine and one hand engine, and aid was asked from Worcester by tele- graph. A steamer and hose carriage left this city at three o’clock this morning by a special train, which made the twelve miles in ‘as many minutes. Engines trom Woodville and Northboro reached the scene at two o'clock A, M. The whole of Eagle block was destroyed, together with two low wooden buildings in South street, and a block of three stor; Lorre corner of Main and South streets. All the buildings were of wood, and the fire was only checked by a heavy brick wall which prevented the spread of the flames towarda the Town House. The Eagle block was owned by Dr, S.G. Henry, and was insured for three-fourths 01 its value. Winter & Jacksot shoe dealers in the same block lost $2,000; insure: in English companies, The smaller sufferers were Mrs. 1. E, Green, milliner; 0, W, Judd, dentist, and others. The corner building was owned, and in part occupied, by 8. M. Gri & Co., druggists, ‘The First National Bank and the District Court rooms were inthe corner building. H. R. Fitch occupied one of the low buildings, having just moved from the other, which was vacant. The dre is a serious loss to the town.
